Everyday Events with the Edwards: We Love St. Simons

After spending the first week of our summer break with the stomach virus, we were very happy to make it to the beach. We spent the weekend with the Brannen’s and enjoyed some beach time and pool time. We even spent a day at the new water park near the village. It is a great place for the kids to play.

After that we moved over to the condo with meme, papa and Aunt Sandi. We spent our time at Summer Waves, playing with Jena and Shane. Spent most of our evening eating out at the local spots. A couple of our favorites are Gnat’s Landing, Crab Trap and CJ’s Pizza. The kids love the playground at the Village so we spent sometime there as well. Of course we had to make a trip to Jekyll for some photos.

Gabriel is off to a great start swimming…….Becky on the other hand. Last year she was not afraid of the pool at all. We couldn’t put our hands on her because she wanted to swim and she did great. This year, she wouldn’t get off the steps. We tried floaties, bribery and everything else that we could think of but she was not having it.

Then of course there was the photo shoot. We went to our favorite spot on Jekyll and there happened to be TONS of fiddler crabs. She was terrified and showed us how scared she was. I wasn’t able to get to many shots of her but Gabriel was fully cooperative as always :0)

We also LOVE going to St. Simons Sweets. They have a ton of goodies including ice cream.

Here are a few shots from our week.
